How much does LayBuild AI cost compared with Intercom?

LayBuild AI is ₹1,499, ₹3,999 or ₹9,999 a month (Starter, Pro, Premium), with 5, 15 or up to 100 team seats included and no fee per AI answer or resolution. Annual billing brings that to ₹1,199, ₹3,199 or ₹7,999 a month. Intercom sets its own prices and changes them, so compare against its current pricing page for the same number of conversations and seats.

Does LayBuild AI charge per resolution like some AI support tools?

No. Every plan is a flat monthly price that includes a set number of conversations (1,500, 8,000 or 20,000). There is no extra charge when the AI resolves a conversation.

What happens when LayBuild AI does not know the answer?

If nothing in your content matches the question, the model is not called and the customer gets a fixed reply saying the answer is not in the knowledge base. A second check replaces any answer whose words mostly do not appear in your sources. Your team can then take the chat over from the dashboard.

How long does it take to move from Intercom to LayBuild AI?

Most of the work is content, not setup. Export your help articles or FAQs, upload them as files or list their URLs, add the widget script to your site, and connect WhatsApp if you use it. LayBuild fetches each listed URL once and does not crawl, so list every page you want it to answer from.

Switching from Intercom?When it makes sense.

Switch to LayBuild if

Your AI bill grows with every resolved conversation and you want a fixed monthly cost.
Your customers message you on WhatsApp and you want the same AI answering there.
You want answers kept to your own documents, with a fixed reply when nothing matches.
You are a small team and want seats included in the plan price.

Stay with Intercom if

You use Intercom for product tours or email campaigns as well as support. LayBuild is for support conversations.
You need an email support channel. LayBuild has web chat, WhatsApp and an API, but no email.
You need SSO or SAML login for your team. LayBuild does not offer it.
Your buyers require SOC 2, HIPAA or ISO 27001 certification. LayBuild has none of these.
